Innovative Human Services Cover Letter Example

Dear Ms. Mary Mccabe,

I am seeking a position in human services and would like my attached resume to be considered by your company River Region Human Services, Inc.

I currently hold a bachelor’s degree in human services and have worked as a social worker for over ten years and have taken refresher courses during that time. In my past position, I have worked with a wide range of citizens in order to help them to obtain a better way of life. This includes working with adults and children who have addiction issues as well as the children of those who are addicted. I have great communication skills which allow me to illustrate a better way of life for those who chose to change their behaviors and to get help for their addictions.

My conflict resolving skills are also high and that aids in having the ability to work with groups of people at a time to come to a conclusion that is a benefit to all. This includes working with families and conducting group therapy sessions where there is more than one personality that have to work together towards a common goal. Many times I was able to diffuse a situation that may have become violent simply by using my skills and quick thinking.

I also have great computer skills and understand the need to document all sessions and interactions with all persons involved into their case files. I have no problem working with a database and am proficient at all Microsoft Office applications too.

Please feel free to contact me at any time by calling (555)-555-5555.

Respectfully,

Your Signature

Darren Dean
